Re: [RFC] Syntax for variadic functions

How about having the ellipsis _after_ the variable? That then coincides with phpDocumentor's recommended syntax of "$c,..." and it keeps any typehint or & with the variable name ("array &$arr..." versus "array &...$arr") and, honestly, I think that reads more easily.
